How long can you ride it without the battery dying?

I have seem my kids ride this scooter for over an hour before it starts to list it's juice.

I charge it for ~30 min and it fly for ~15 min.I recommend to buy the repair kit so it will last longer. My kids had their first damage after ~5 chargers and can still play with it today after ~15 charges. They are 5-9 years old and they crash it all the time.

I never measured the real charge time because generally we'd just plug it in overnight, but the charge would generally last for a solid 90 minutes of ride-time, though as the battery wears you'll see a speed decrease earlier in that 90 minute timeline. I would guesstimate at about 45 minutes of ride-time for every 5 hours of charging or so, but that's just a rough calculation based on 2 years of ownership and observation.

Took it for a two hour ride and that is the longest time I have used so far. Had no problems with it. It comes with a adapter for use of 3 AAA batteries which I carried to be safe. After 2 hours it was still shining bright

If you leave it on constantly then probably only 1 day it's a tiny battery. but if you only use it a couple hours a day it will last.

I have not replaced my battery yet and I have had the night rider 650 for almost 18 months. I use it almost daily and love the light and rechargeable battery. I have dropped it multiple times and had a serious wreck in Jan of this year and seriously scraped a section of the plastic but it takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I am buying one for the wife.

About 20 minutes. You can also use lipo pack's that will last 45 minutes to an hour.

I liked the bike but the battery only lasted about 18 months and costs around 400. if you can find one.

That completely depends on the speed you are running it. If you only run it at full speed, it may last two hours on a charged battery. If you run at the lowest speed, it can last up to 15 hours or so.

No - you don't ever have to pedal if you don't want to. If you pedal you don't use as much battery.

If battery is totally discharged May take 3-4 hours. But generally that is not the case. For most rides of up to 10 miles you only need about two hours.

Yes, replacement batteries are available, but not for the purpose of swapping out of to extend ride time. If the battery were to stop holding a charge it can be replaced.

I weigh about 180lbs and will go about 10 miles at full speed on mostly flat terrain. I have thought about a spare battery, but have not found a good way to carry one with me.... I could imagine if I commuted to work or somewhere regularly keeping a spare battery to switch out.

I always do but I think if you ride a couple of times a week you should be fine. The green led does not pull much power. That being said I would not leave it plugged for two weeks straight. Hope that helps.Charles

Well the original battery gives you maybe 10 min on a good day and light flying with no stunts, the upgraded one I got gives you approx. 20 minutes I'd say. Haven't timed it, so I can't give an exact, but it is definitely a long enough flight time to be worth it.

It lasted at least 25 night rides with none of them longer than 3 miles... hope that helped

It depends on the capacity of the battery. I've never run it till it dies but always run it on high and it lasts at least an hour. Or two 100ft dives no problem.
